Configuring rsnapshot to backup multiple computers - individual exclusion rules

260 Views Asked by At

I've got rsnapshot set up to backup two computers on my local network, as well as the server it's running on. How do I specify individual exclude sets for each backup? As it stands, I have individual cronjobs for each computer, each with its own rsnapshot.conf file. This would be fine, but I get three additional copies of hourly.* in my backup, which indicates that there is some redundancy going on in my setup. Do I have to write backup scripts for each one and have the excludes in there instead of in the main .conf file?
